Man I can't get gold on level 20... That's all I need. Also I can't get 10k on level 19, highest I got was $9053... Nothing ever seems to work for me I've played 10+ times.
Do it on level 19...
True indeed for the
Stuffed Mattress quest, but I figure xXxDAPRO89xXx is talking about the
Big-Rig Wrecker quest (Earn all 20 gold medals.), which requires a gold medal on level 20. Getting a gold medal on level 20 requires having $10,000 profit (the money in the upper left corner of the game screen).
Actually, I'm having trouble getting gold on level 20.
I've tried a few things so far.
1.) Build three factories right away, upgrade them when cash on hand allows.
- This method got me close to obtaining a gold medal (about $9,500), but that only happened once, subsequent tries have been less successful.
2.) Build two factories right away, upgrade them when cash on hand allows, and eventually build and upgrade a third factory.
- This method has only gotten me to around $7,000 maybe $8,000.
3.) Build three factories right away, eventually build a fourth factory or more (up to six factories). Do not upgrade any factories.
- This seemed like a solid idea. The cost to fully upgrade three factories is $2700, which is more than buying factories 4 ($600), 5 ($700), and 6 ($800) ($2100 total). (Those factory costs are derived from having the maximum upgrade for cheaper factories. Factories will cost more if you do not have that upgrade.)
With this method, even though the factories are slow at turning out trucks, you have a lot of factories. Having a lot of factories means you should be able to put a lot of trucks on the road rather quick, you just have to split up the load correctly between the many factories. The downfall is that you have to micromanage very well and that can be tough. My result using this method was that it failed me. I Only ended up with around $7000 dollars.
I usually build my factories, when using any method, like this:
All the factories are near the middle road of the screen (the road that dissects the screen into a top and bottom half). One factory far left, one factory in the middle, and one factory far right. This means each factory is responsible for a third of the game screen. The factory is situated half way within it's own third, reducing the maximum travel time needed for a truck.
Even with the following strategies and having almost full upgrades (just a few order time upgrades aren't in place) I still cannot finish level 20 with gold.
There must be a better method to getting a gold medal on level 20.
